Dan Webster + Emily Lawler

About this event

FOLK AND ROOTS PRESENTS: DAN WEBSTER + EMILY LAWLER ‘The missing link, the joining point, where folk fuses with country – as good as you’ll hear on any record out of Austin or Nashville – beautiful, a malleable mash of folk, country and Alt rock.’ Americana UK Dan Webster and Emily Lawler deliver a compelling transatlantic blend of Americana, country, folk, and roots. Hailing from York, UK, the duo has won over audiences across the UK and Australia with their captivating live performances and finely crafted songs. Dan Webster’s powerful, warm vocals and storytelling prowess draw from his Yorkshire heritage — weaving tales of family, fishing, and life’s emotional undercurrents into songs that echo with the spirit of bluegrass, country, and English folk. Whether delivering a stripped-back ballad or igniting a dancefloor at a festival, his song writing is as grounded as it is emotive. At his side, Emily Lawler brings extraordinary fiddle work shaped by both Celtic and country influences, along with soaring harmonies that add richness and depth to the duo’s sound. Together, Dan and Emily have become favourites on the UK festival scene, playing major sets at Green Man, Shambala, Kendal Calling, and Maverick Festival. Doors open 7.30pm. Music starts 8pm. The venue is mixed seated and standing. Tables are limited, and available on a first come first served basis, so if you’d like a seat , we recommend arriving early!
